Ellyes Skhiri is in top form. In the first two Bundesliga games of the year against Werder Bremen (7-1) and FC Bayern (1-1), the six from 1. FC Köln scored three goals and also conceded uncompromisingly and as fast as ever.
However, there is a problem for FC: Skhiri’s contract expires at the end of the season. And an extension seems further away than ever given the form high. The 27-year-old wants to take the next step in his career and play internationally as often as possible.
BVB vs. SGE?
He could do that at Borussia Dortmund. BVB has long been traded as a potential Skhiri target. But with Eintracht Frankfurt, another top team from the Bundesliga is now on the Tunisian. According to the ‘Bild’ is Skhiri “one of several candidates for the position in midfield center”.
In this position, Eintracht threatens to lose Daichi Kamada (26) and Djibril Sow (25) in the summer. Although Skhiri is a different type of player than the two well-versed technicians, his tireless style of play suits Eintracht football. However, the change process is not yet particularly concrete.
